I found in a kit of other feet that I bought for a white rotary their version of a hem stitcher foot that does the same thing. I post a picture but it won't let me I also have the instruction page how to use it. Thank you to your video and demonstration of this foot. I was able to kind of understand how the other foot works. They don't look the same
Oh my goodness, i have been half heartedly looking for how to do this decorative finish for _years!_ What a happy day to finally find it! Now i hope i can still find the foot. Three moves and two sewing room makeovers later, i have no idea where it might be! Cross your fingers, it’s just disappeared into the bottom of the furtherest corner of the lowest draw filled with ‘that kind of stuff’. I want to use it as a decorative feature around the bottom of a pair of trousers. I love the little eyelash-y looking thing too. I’ll have to think about where to put that one.
Ah, the joys to reorganising, I have done this so many times and those little feet like to run away and hide somewhere odd - like the sock drawer or the fridge! I hope you find it (I now keep all my presser feet in a tub so they can't run off 😁)
Ooh - that makes rather a nice seam finish, Sewy Thingy. Thank you for making the video to show us how it works! I hope it's as easy as you make it look because I have one of these (not sure if it is the same as yours though, it might slightly different...) and you made it look like a breeze. It seems like it would really nice for use on dainty or lacy things. Pretty blouses (the kinds that have tucks and lace etc) and petticoats come to mind... The picots would look rather nice, I think, if the 'picot loops' were in a slightly thicker, lustrous thread in a colour that either contrasts or matches with the fabric. It reminds me of the effect you see on the edge of some ribbons. I'm not sure quite what I'd use it for but am sure one day I'll want to do something and think "Aah - I've got just the thing for that!" and them come racing back to this video to see how it is done.
Thank you so much, it is definitely easier than some of the other attachments. I think the hardest part is getting a nice crisp pressed seam after. I faffed with mine.
Oh I didn't know that, perhaps it was only made in the UK? The zigzag I have is only made in USA (cost me a small mortgage to buy one and get it shipped over).
@@sewythingy I have, crikey some of them are expensive! It will make a lovely detail on a neck line! Sew exited to try it. Thank you for the video 😘❤ xx
Interesting, but I doubt I'd ever use one. ... what I do want, is your zig-zag thingy and your under-braider thingy, but it seems they were only intended for Royalty and the like. A King's ransom, even if you can find one... I don;t know how the Greeks ended up with most of them...maybe there was a large wooden horse involved in a raid or something similar... lol 👍
I have one and yet to play with it properly. For the picot edge you can use two threads through the needle for double the effect. I found a free copy of the instructions online at The Featherweight Shop
I have a funny feeling I already have. I made 2 videos on the ruffler, the first one I talk about where to oil it. With the buttonholer video I take mine apart so you can see the cogs inside. Have a look, but if they are not helpful, let me know what you would like and I'll do a video for you 😁

I'm so pleased the video helped 😁
Gorgeous heirloom sewing techniques. Lovely to see. ❤
I have my grandmother's tablecloths and they are edged with this type of decorative stitch and a 1.5'' edge. 😊
Very helpful! Thank you.

Around a neckline!
This is brilliant thank you!
Very cool I don’t think I have this foot. Thanks for sharing ❤
I remember my grandmother sewing the "eyelash" edge onto my cotton nightgown! White nightgown with Robin's egg blue thread.
That's a lovely memory 🥰
That's a neat little foot. Did a quick search on eBay and the only places that I can find it from is UK and grease
Oh I didn't know that, perhaps it was only made in the UK?
The zigzag I have is only made in USA (cost me a small mortgage to buy one and get it shipped over).
How cool is that attachment they are so pretty! Thats an attachment i will have to look for. As always thank you xx
Isn't it beautiful! Have a look on eBay, there is bound to be some, that's where I got my one..such a delightful little thing 😁

@@NellMckayah yes sometimes the prices on eBay are bonkers, but keep an eye out 😁
@@sewythingy found one on ebay, got it for a tenner yeah! 😃👍
@@NellMckay fantastic! So glad you got one 😁 let me know how you get on with it when it arrives. How exciting!
Pillowcases! That's where you see the first one.

Ooh thank you, I'll have a look at the FW shop 😁
Would it be possible for you to make a video on how to clean and service the more complicated attachmentsM like the button holer and ruffler etc :)

To me, it looks like a fagoting stitch
